Hello again everyone,
I hope that you are all healthy, well-rested and enjoying time with your families. I know it has been a while since I have communicated with you. There has been a lot going on "behind the scenes" while we prepare for distance learning. At this point, I am attempting to shift to Google Classroom. I have some important information for you there. So, here are the codes:
period 1: World History - 3nt37hx

Take care,
Mr. Regan
